I'm a great fan of fruit and veggies to look at, take photos of, paint and even eat. How the pears glow in the chill November sun!
This is a most useful thing. A wreath made entirely of herbs which would be wonderful to have in a chill dank kitchen but would dry up in an instant in an overheated apartment.
Perfectly exquisite very very small cauliflowers. I buy a tiny one just for me since R. thinks they are boring and tasteless.
Windfall Farms micro mesclun. $16 for a quarter pound. The most expensive greenery on the planet. A treat just to look at it. I buy $7 worth which is enough for small salads for two.
The pears, when inspected at home, prove to be picturesque but a little wrinkly round the neck. (Avoid obvious comparisons here....) The brown leaf looks sere, which is an excellent word.
And now for something completely different....
a stupendously awful/wonderful window display (23rd St between 7th and 8th)
he looks as if he has a canteen hanging off his nose
while she probably has jaw-ache from that rictus of a smile.
Season's Greetings...etc.
